Hi,

@Navneet_Jaiswal

I need to use Dictionary activities, how can I use it. Is there any other Alternative.

Can you check the following topic?

[FirstAid] Migration to Windows target Framework - Missing Microsoft.Activities.Extensions package - Dictionary Activities

Introduction When changing from Windows Legacy to Windows target framework the package: Microsoft.Activities.Extensions is no longer available. This package offered a few Activities for working with Dictionaries. [grafik] Issue As the package is not available, so also the offered activities are no longer available and alternate handling is needed. Workaround Instead of using the activities from above, the same result can be achieved with the following options, mostly done on .Net API base. …

Hi @Navneet_Jaiswal

we assume that your project is defining “Windows” as selected TargetFramework Microsoft.Activities.Extensions Package is only available for the Windows - Legacy targetframework.
However, we can work with dictionaries as well with the following alternates:

1. For creating a dictionary
   Samples for a String, Int32 Dict Init: yourDict = new Dictionary(Of String, Int32) (assign Activity)
2. Adding to the dictionary collection
   yourDict(“YourKey”) = 123 (assign Activity)
3. Get value from dictionary with keypair
   myVar = yourDict(“YourKey”) (assign Activity)

Regards, I hope it helps!!

Hi,

Perhaps, you should write it as the following.

MyDict(row("TiTle").ToString) = row("Details").ToString

BTW, in this case, we can also achieve it using the following expression.(Without ForEachRow)

MyDict = DTRecords.AsEnumerable.ToDictionary(Function(r) r("Title").ToString(),Function(r) r("Details").ToString())

OR

MyDict = DTRecords.AsEnumerable.ToDictionary(Function(r) r("Title").ToString(),Function(r) CObj(r("Details").ToString()))

Hope this helps you.

Hi @Navneet_Jaiswal

In assigning the values to the keys in assign activity. Give like this

MyDict(row(“Title”).ToString) = row(“Details”).ToString
